Middle-earth in Concert
Tinuviel
Elrond comes back out on stage. "Next is Glorfindel the Balrog Slayer!" Clapping ensues as Glorfindel takes the stage, guitar in hand. He situates himself on the tall stool in front of the microphone and began to play.
-
Where the river runs down to the Beleriand plain
There lived a maiden, Tinuviel was her name
The daughter of old Thingol and a fair one was she
The sweetest flower that bloomed o'er the range
-
Her voice was as sweet as the elven candy
Her touch was as soft as the soft as light of stars
Her eyes shone bright like elven starlights
That shines in the night from Varda on down.
-
She was courted by wanderin' Beren
A fine man was he as I am to hear
He gave her glowing rings and ancient elven things
And she promised to wed before the snows came that year
-
Beren was slain, he did fall.
His dyin' caused her to follow to Mandos' Hall.
While talking through her pain, she found it wasn't in vain
And they met again, in a hidden elvish place.
-
They sing of Tinuviel where the Anduin runs through
They sing of her beauty in the White City too
At dusky sundown to her name they drink a round
And to young Beren whose love was true
-
Glorfindel finished and sniffles were heard amongst the elves as well as loud applause.
